Justin Barron will see the ice for the first time since Oct. 31 when the Canadiens take on the Columbus Blue Jackets at the Bell Centre on Saturday night.

Puck drop at 7 p.m. (CityTV, SNE, TVA Sports, TSN Radio 690, 98.5 FM).

Jayden Struble will sit to make room for Barron. Struble took a four-minute high-sticking penalty in the third period on Thursday in a 3-0 loss to the Minnesota Wild.

Former captain and new Hockey Hall of Famer Shea Weber will be honoured by the Habs prior to puck drop.
